filling your batteries

I use an old (clean) 2 liter coke bottle and replace the cap with a top that came off of an unused bottle of gear oil. (the kind that you snip off) I added a 2 foot piece of clear plastic tubing to the top.
Fill the "coke" bottle with distilled water. Replace modified cap. Put the hose in the desired hole in the battery, and turn the bottle upside down. When it gets full turn the bottle back upright. (if you're in a hurry, you can squeeze the bottle to make it flow a little faster)

If your batteries are under part of the top cap like mine are, you can see in the hole by getting a lighted "dentist's" mirror at Wally World.

Works Great...

Cool idea!! I spent the $$ (too much btw) for 2 of the autofill kits, since my batts are also half under the rear deck, and a pain to fill.. But your idea would be perfect for the do it yourselfer!! And would save alot of $$.. Wish I'd of seen this before.. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/USA1.gif

http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthup.gif Good tip!!!

That is a really good idea! Right now I use the turkey baster too.

I use a drinking bottle with those suck on caps. Just aim and squirt. Of course its not as dry doing it this way. But what the hey distilled water is cheap.....

i use a clear katsup bottle from walley world, it was 65 cents. No mess, the turkey baster works good too
